Are the Jets a stable franchise? No, they are not, but why would Cousins let history dictate his future? Carve your own path. There’s familiarity, you’ll become the highest paid player in history and Cousins has a real opportunity in a weakened AFC conference.

I also have to say that the Brett Favre argument is the absolute weak sauce. In the infamous words of Mel Kiper, “stats are for losers.” On the surface, when you take his Jets season (22 touchdowns and 22 interceptions) and then compare it against one year later with a new team (Minnesota Vikings), Favre has a career year with 34 touchdowns and seven interceptions and it suddenly it looks like a Jets issue.

But if you dig beyond the headline and actually analyze the situation, Favre suffered a torn biceps in the middle of the season and kept the news to himself and thus the Jets finished 1-4 down the stretch going from 8-3 Super Bowl contender to 9-7 and missing the postseason. Here, I’ve got a new moniker to adhere to, “stats without context are for losers.”

While the Jets need to fill the gaping dark hole at quarterback, they could also use some help in other areas, here’s some more information via the Jets official Twitter account:

Matt Miller said that Saquon Barkley is ‘the best running back he’s ever evaluated’. That would make a ton of sense if he falls to six, it has happened two years in a row, could we see the Jets get the luck of the Irish again?

Bradley Chubb makes a lot of sense, but is he going to fall to six? I love Quenton Nelson and he should 100 percent be there, not based off of talent, but because of the value of guards. If this draft was on pure talent, Nelson could be the No. 1 pick, but teams overthink things and arrange guys on other metrics.
